Agreement after a marked agent
An original Hindi workshop compares “लड़कियों ने रोटियाँ खाईं” with “उसने बच्चों को बुलाया”. The learner must identify the relevant participants and explain the visible verb forms in these constructions. One draft chooses the ending solely from the gender of the person doing the action. Another treats बच्चों as though it were an unmarked agreement controller, ignoring को. The task asks for analysis of the actual phrases, not an automatic rule for every Hindi tense and verb class. No official examination mark or current course threshold is supplied. The teacher also provides “वह गया” to show why a learner should not add ने merely because an English translation uses the past. These are original language examples, not a complete treatment of every exception or the whole Hindi agreement system.
1. Why does the first example use खाईं?
Read the worked answer
The ने-marked agent does not control this form; the unmarked object रोटियाँ is feminine plural, reflected in खाईं.
2. What must be noticed in the second example?
Read the worked answer
बच्चों carries को. The example uses the default masculine singular बुलाया in this construction, rather than automatic agreement with that marked object.
